My favorite aspect is how simple it is to carry out its integration with other Fortinet software, because performing this process guarantees maximum protection, since unknown threats or zero day threats do not go unnoticed, it is possible to have a performance that adjusts to the needs of users and obtain a much more stable and scalable business security management with this software, in addition to its easy use and implementation, it guarantees time savings that are used to continue business productivity.

Efficient and scalable protection

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Fortinet Fortigate NGFW from other similar products?

Fortinet Firewall Platform differs from other software because it has robust and efficient characteristics, it offers protection against threats for small, medium or large companies, it has much more in-depth content inspection capabilities, generating the advantage of distinguishing or identifying attacks, malware, threats external and internal so that they are blocked and the business network is not under threat, because its firewall not only blocks threats but also provides scalable solutions, that is, it remains in constant evolution so that as new threats arise the network continues to be protected, it also gives the user a simple and intuitive interface so that it is not necessary to invest in training to operate it.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of this Fortinet platform is how simple it is to use and how scalable it is, as it allows you to keep your network secure as new threats emerge, plus the fact that your firewall carries out a network inspection. of what enters and leaves at a high speed so that there is only threat-free traffic, said process being totally stable since it does not generate any discomfort because it does not generate long downtime.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Its configuration can be somewhat complex, but this is only if the person has never used any type of similar software, in addition, their local solution does not have very solid algorithms.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This software has a fairly simple and pleasant graphical interface but its initial configuration is somewhat complex so something that could be helpful is to go to its video instead of reading its documentation, but it is still a software that will allow you to maintain a business network with stable and legitimate traffic as it inspects and identifies threats and provides scalable solutions.

Pros

  • Saves Time
  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
